Page number placement in Bibliography

I have edited a style for my thesis, but I have a question regarding moving the page numbers for chapters to the end of the reference. For journal articles I get entries that look fine and appear like this:
Achtemeier, P.J., (1975), ‘The Lucan Perspective on the Miracles of Jesus: A Preliminary Sketch’, Journal of Biblical Literature 94 (4): 547–562.
Alexander, L., (1998), ‘Fact, Fiction and the Genre of Acts’, New Testament Studies: 380–399.

For some reason, the page numbers for chapters edited volumes are appearing before the publishing information at the end:

Assmann, J., (2011b), ‘Form as a Mnemonic Device’, In Performing the Gospel: Orality, Memory, and Mark, edited by Horsley, Draper, and Foley, 67–82. Minneapolis: Fortress Press,U.S.

How do I get the page numbers to appear at the end like the journals? I've looked at some of the locators in the Visual CSL editor, but can't seem to figure it out. Similarly, is there a way to abbreviate the journals for my bibliography?
Any suggestions are helpful, thanks.
  • page numbers would be variable="pages" - there no fixed rule how to put them in the end - having them after the title is not uncommon, so that was probably the case for the style you based this on.
    If you make the style available somewhere we can look at it (e.g. as a public gist on gist.github.com )

    adding form="short" to the text variable="container-title" line for journal article will use the short form of journal titles - by default that uses an abbreviation list more suitable to the "hard" sciences, you can disable that in the document preferences of the word processor plugin - with the option disabled it will use the content of the "Journal Abbr." field.
  • Great. I posted the style here: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/10099116
    Thanks for your help.
  • without having tested this, I believe just moving
    <text macro="pages-chapter"/>
    down so that it's next to
    <text macro="pages-article"/>
    (before or after doesn't matter) should do the trick.
  • Yes, that did the trick thanks!
